Most excellent tour of the big Apple. We used to go twice a year but spent most of our time shopping on Madison Ave, and the usual areas.

Great pics! I love New York, and can't wait to get back there is a few weeks to see my daughter and her fiancee.

Thanks for the kind words all! NYC makes it easy to take decent photos.

Great photos! Love NYC...and that includes the outer boroughs as well. There’s so much development in Brooklyn...and Queens, can’t beat the authentic ethnic food there.

That's the Vessel at Hudson Yards.

Only brought the Tudor this time - 1 bracelet, 5 straps though...haha.

Great pictures as always.. Did you take them with your Fuji X100f? I'm debating between that and the Sony RX100 vii for my next travel camera!

Thanks! I actually have the x100s (2nd gen vs. the current 4th gen F), and yes - these were taken with it. My Nikon DSLR just gathers dust in the closet.

I've had this camera for about 5 years now and I'm just waiting for the 5th gen to be announced / released to replace this one. Fuji's colors are amazing and after having this camera, I don't think that I can go any other route.

wowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!! amazing photos buddy !

Thanks for this thread too because i was planning to pop over to america again next year, back to San jose first then from there to NY.

From your photos i kinda know what angles to take them from too =D and where to go (the missus will be asking me to take photos of her), can i ask does it get like bloody freezing in November? I;m only used to UK type of cold, did experience las vegas weather in February ... jesus it was so cold i wore a down jacket everything and i was still shivering, probably because i forgot a scarf but lips were all broken by the next day

I'm not a native New Yorker, but I know what Vegas in February is like, and that is freezing. I don't think it's THAT cold just yet in NY around the time you'll be visiting, but I expect the weather would be around the 40's in Fahrenheit.

Type in the city in the weather app on your phone. San Jose is warmer than San Francisco. Vegas is high desert which is NOT the same as Phoenix.

greatest city in the world. Incredible pics and you hit a lot of the good spots. I believe the weather was pretty fair too while you were here. It'll start getting unbearably cold soon

We live in FL but I'm from the west coast, so the "chilly" 70 degrees this weekend was absolutely welcome for me. I love sweater weather - my wife, on the other hand...

Another pic of The Vessel looking out from Neiman Marcus. And one of the cool bizarre "tilted" glasses from the Watches of Switzerland's bar.
